Rueda Delgado, Diana Paola (Date of defense: 2019-07-30)
Organometal halide perovskites for solar cells are hybrid semiconductors that recently have caught the attention of the scientific community due to its excellent performance and attractive optical properties. Since then, ...
Jha, Ajit (Date of defense: 2016-11-25)
Diese Arbeit soll einen Beitrag leisten zur Entwicklung neuer Sensorstrategien, basierend auf Phänomenen der optischer Rückkopplung, in Kombination mit die Intensitätsmodulation des Lasers. Optische Rückkopplung, ein ...
Liu, Quan (Date of defense: 2018-03-23)
Solution-processed thin film solar cells emerged as very promising photovoltaic technologies suitable for a low cost roll-to-roll upscale production. Such thin film character also ensures lightweight and flexibility for ...
Sridhar, Susmita (Date of defense: 2016-10-05)
Polarization gating imaging is a popular and widely used imaging technique in biomedical optics to sense tissues, deeper volumes, and also selectively probe sub-superficial volumes. Due to the "polarization memory" effect ...
Sosa Costa, Alberto (Date of defense: 2017-03-02)
The migration of leukocytes from the blood stream to sites of injury and infection in the extravascular tissues is fundamental for the immune response. Two of the main receptors mediating this process are the integrins ...
Pastorelli, Francesco (Date of defense: 2013-12-09)
In this century some of our main issues are energy shortage and pollution. This work will briefly describe these problems, proposing a plan of action combining energy saving and different sustainable energy sources. Within ...
Ahmed, Waqas Waseem (Date of defense: 2018-04-17)
The quest for new artificial structures and materials uncovers novel new light-matter interactions, and intriguing physical phenomena. Since the late 80’s purely dielectric materials have been structured, at the wavelength-scale, ...
García Guerra, Carlos Enrique (Date of defense: 2016-07-29)
Within the visual system, the optics of the eye is responsible for forming images of external objects on the ocular fundus for its photo-reception and neural interpretation. However, the eye is not perfect and its capabilities ...
Regmi, Raju (Date of defense: 2017-11-10)
Single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy has revolutionized the field of biophysical sciences by enabling visualization of dynamic molecular interactions and nanoscopic features with high spatiotemporal resolution. ...
Valdés Escobar, Claudia Patricia (Date of defense: 2014-12-15)
Blood flow and its regulation, as well as hemodynamics in general, are important for the health of tissues and hence the measurement of these quantities has many applications in research and clinical environments. Various ...
Coop, Simon (Date of defense: 2018-09-06)
This thesis reports on theory and results from two experiments related to nonlinear behaviour in ensembles of optically-trapped ultracold atoms. The first experiment, performed at ICFO in Barcelona, regards the prediction ...
Valadés Cruz, César Augusto (Date of defense: 2014-07-12)
While super-resolution microscopy has brought a significant improvement in nano-scale imaging of molecular assemblies in biological media, its extension to imaging molecular orientation using fluorescence anisotropy has ...
